Talking OK I'm Guilty
Yes I screwed up ! I bought a rkc new in 07 with the then new 96 ci engine,
but after i got it broke in, the bike still felt slugish and heavy. So i got my jugg bored
out and added Bigger and Better heads and pistons and cams along with a better
breather and exhaust system and then to top it off I have added Aarons new touring
stabilizer.
Now I'm setting here at 5:30am finishing off a half uh beef /ripe olive/mushroom pizza
drinking a coke, thinking what I have really built is a 49 year old teenager that needs
rear tire number three. I'll probley be shot by a 46 year young wife

Guilty of what? We buy these to both ride and pile our $$ into don't we? If I can't ride or tinker on the ride........then I am miserable!
